Selena Gomez addressed fans' inquiries following her confirmation of a relationship with music producer Benny Blanco.

The rumor mill started churning when the celebrity news fan account PopFaction suggested that the two musicians were romantically involved.

She replied in the comments section with one word: "Facts."

The singer also said she feels bad for one fan who said Benny is 'unhandsome'.

She revealed in another comment, saying: “He has treated me better than any human being on this planet."

Gomez clarified that Benny Blanco is, in her words, "still better than anyone" she has ever been with, emphasizing that he holds a special place as her "absolute everything in her heart."

Another fan seemed to not vibe with the new relationship and she responded with: "I don't understand. If you actually care about me. This is my happiest."

"If you don't feel free to say whatever you want. But I will never allow your words to guide my life. Ever. I'm done."

"If you can't accept me at my happiest then don't be in my life at all."

Selena Gomez stirred the rumor mill once more by posting a photo of herself cozying up to Benny.

Celeb gossip outlets took notice when Selena and Benny started following each other on Instagram, and Gomez's mom joined the trend by following the music producer as well.

Amplifying the speculation, Benny added fuel to the fire a few days ago when he shared a picture of a note from his 'girlfriend,' featuring a woman who appeared to be Gomez sleeping in the background.

Having collaborated on the 2018 song 'I Can't Get Enough' with J Balvin, it appears that Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco have maintained their connection over the years.

In the past, Gomez has been romantically linked with celebrities such as Nick Jonas, Justin Bieber, Zedd, and The Weeknd.

A source shared with Entertainment Tonight in late November that Selena is currently in a phase of "casual dating" and is doing well.

They added: "She is doing her own thing and doesn’t feel any sort of pressure to be in a relationship. ”

She is just focusing on what’s best for her right now and has been very in tune with maintaining her own boundaries.”

"Her friends and family support her and just want her to be happy.”

Well, it seems like she is very happy.
